QUESTIONS are frequently asked
through the press by young men
who have by careful management
and hard work gotten together Il
few hundred dollars, what portion
of the West would it be advisable
for mon to locate? Many of the
answers come like this, Why 90
West? The New York Ercniay Sun
says; 1t all depends on young men
whether they succeed in the West
or not. The West is Il very danger
Gus place for Il young man with IL
few hundred dollars to go unless he
is possessed of great shrcwdness.
The opportunities are great there TO
be sure; but they are much greater
for losing money than persons real
ize But why should young man
60 West? \ great business man
once said that he would settle in
New York if he wanted to do any
kind of business, even to selling pea
nuts. If Il man can succeed in the
West with small capital to start
with, he can succeed in this city,
and the prizes of business here are
greater. Many Of the business men
who have been successful in the
West have given up that field and
are coming to New York. We
think the Eceniag SIM speaks very
truthfully about the chances in the
West and in New York city. We
feel sure we would prefer the latter
place for money making purposes.

Sadly Disappointed at Brown City.


Having considerable business to do
in Brown City OH recent visit Tues
day, called Oh five different business
or so called business men during bust
ness hours or what is known as bust
ness hours in any other business town
and could not gain admittance The
proprietOrs had gone to, I know not
where. One place, in particular, have
been to see the PROPRIETOR on five differ
ent occasions and one would think
there would be man to greet his GUS
toners with smile us they would open
the door, but, instead, there is plenty
of space-more space than stock. There
is no sound, and as far as can find no
proprietors. Gossip says there is man
who owns the premises and pretends to
do business there. I would like to en-
ploy gossip to find him, as have taken
goods there to be repaired and they
would be promised to be done the fol-
lowing week and have gone for them
nine different times and could not find
the proprietor nor the goods. l say as a
customer, and one who pays for all he
gets, that this man must have a hidden
surplus to draw from or must be cer-
tain of some fortune, or else he is de-
cidedly crank of the first water.
For instance, if man has no surpl us,
will not work, tells his customers DELHI
crate falsehOods by promising to do
certain work, then not doing that work
and having ITO excuse to offer, must be
laboring under some delusiOn. How
can he expect to be patronized. The
business men who are business men of
the village, should encourage men into
the place. as opposition to such indivi-
duals. Men that are alive and that can
always be found during business hours
digging and delving. y proprietor
who wanders aimlessly around, paying
no heed to the wants of his customers
wants opposition and wants it bad.
y business instructor says, "a healthy
person who does not give any legiti-
mate business they follow their whole
attention, but allows that business to
go on in a dying state, is lazy, indO-
lent specimen of humanity and should
not be recognized by respectable socie-
ty. as it is only aquestion of time when
a man of that stripe is al out and out
anarchist in his mind and certainly OPP
position is the only thing to keep such
men at their work posts"
